Notices have been issued to the employees and the government to submit their replies.
On June 3, the Economic Coordination Committee approved firing all employees of the Pakistan Steel Mills.
A Rs20 billion package has been prepared for the employees and each of them will be given at least Rs2.3 million as golden handshake. There are 9,350 employees who will be fired within a month and another 250 will be let go within three months.
